Japan Turns to Turkish Drones in $640 Million Defense Plan

Amid rising geopolitical tensions, Japan has decided to increase its defense spending. Under this plan, the Tokyo administration aims to raise the defense budget to 1.9% of GDP in fiscal year 2026 and to 2% in 2027. This budget increase, a key part of Japan's defense planning, is seen as part of efforts to strengthen the country's military capabilities. In this context, it is reported that the Tokyo administration is particularly interested in leveraging Turkey's unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technologies. As talks for cooperation in the defense industry with Turkey gain momentum, Japan's focus on Turkish UAVs in its $640 million defense plan draws attention. This collaboration is interpreted as heralding a new era in defense relations between the two countries. Japan's increase in defense spending has the potential to affect regional security dynamics. Turkish UAV technologies are expected to play a significant role in Japan's defense strategy. This is not investment advice.

📊 ASELS — Piyasa Yorumu

▲ up · 65%

The news is a positive development for the defense sector in which ASELS operates, potentially increasing the company's export potential. Technical indicators present mixed signals: the RSI at 54 is in neutral territory, while the MACD is above its signal line and positive, suggesting short-term upward momentum. However, the 2% decline in the last closing and the price hovering near the 20-day moving average warrant caution. A positive opening move is expected tomorrow due to the news, but surpassing the 390 TL resistance level is crucial for the sustainability of any rally.

📊 TAVHL — Piyasa Yorumu

▲ up · 65%

The news can be considered a positive development for the defense industry sector in which TAVHL operates. On the technical indicators, the RSI at 63 has not approached the overbought zone, while the MACD, though slightly below the signal line, remains in positive territory. The upward direction of short-term moving averages (SMA20 and SMA50) also supports the uptrend. However, the 1.5% decline in the last closing and the MACD's failure to cross above the signal line warrant caution. Therefore, while an upward movement is expected, a limited rise rather than strong momentum is anticipated.
